Acceptance Criteria

<p>Hey I have about a 3.8, and I have 32 college credits from AP exams, my ACT is a 30, and my SAT is 2050 is that going to get me in?</p>

<p>Nothing anyone says on here has any basis in fact. None of this advice will be valid. Nobody knows if you're going to get in. Go and look around and you'll see.</p>

<p>how do you know how many college credit you're getting?</p>

<p>I know that no one knows if I will get in, but I want to see how people's grades who have been accepted compare to my own.</p>

<p>and you get 4 credits per AP class as long as you get a 3 or above on the AP exam.</p>

<p>Go to the stats profiles on CC and look at the stats for those being accepted to Duke.</p>

<p>Devils - hate to burst your bubble but - Duke will not accept all your AP credits as credits at Duke. In other words if you are accepted to Duke you will not come in with 32 credits. If I am not mistaken you need a 5 on most tests at Duke and then you can only bring in 2 classes that are general requirements.</p>

<p>Devils-</p>

<p>I've read about credit hours on collegeboard, and Duke will accept a 4 or 5.</p>

<p>They'll only accept 2 classes though.. they're not exactly the type of school that'd give you 32 credits from your high school classes and let you say you got your degree at Duke. Plus, I think the only 3 they accept is Computer Science AB. The rest are 4's or 5's</p>

<p>The credit policy is a lot more generous for Pratt in that they tend to allow as many math/science ones as you have (except AP stats) and 2 humanities. </p>

<p>But not all colleges do a 4 credit hours per course system. Duke, for example, does a 1 credit per course system. So 32 college credits = 8 credits at Duke max (assuming Pratt).</p>

<p>It would've been easier and clearer to say you took 8 AP courses and are planning to get or have gotten 3s or higher ;)</p>
